ABSTRACT:
A method for segmenting a digital image composed of pixels, including determining hard border fragments in the digital image by means of an edge detection process, determining respective sides of each of said hard border fragments, and forming segments by determining for each pixel a closest side and by uniquely assigning each pixel of said digital image to a single segment, corresponding with the determined closest side to the respective pixel.
